They are made from the dried husks of corn—one of the sacred \"Three Sisters\" (corn, beans, and squash)—soaked in water to become pliable, then twisted, folded, and tied into human figures. Every part of the corn plant was used sustainably, with husks also serving for mats, baskets, and more.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA key feature of traditional Iroquois corn husk dolls is that they have no face. This stems from a Haudenosaunee legend: The Corn Spirit created the first doll with a beautiful face to play with children and bring joy. The doll became vain, admiring her reflection and neglecting her purpose. As punishment, the Great Spirit removed her face, teaching humility. To this day, faces are not added as a reminder that no one is better than others.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Antique American Indian Art","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47338323312805,"sku":"22-0296","price":295.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0718\/6071\/5685\/files\/22-0296_1.jpg?v=1767202685"},{"product_id":"corn-husk-doll-by-alice-mitten","title":"Corn Husk Doll By Alice Mitten","description":"\u003cp\u003e20th Century\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e9.125\" H x 5\" L x 6.75\" W\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHand Crafted from Carved Wood and Corn Husk with Red Face, Fur, Leather, Felt, Yarn, Sticks and Glass Seed Beads\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFrom a Private Colorado Collection\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn Very Good Condition\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis corn husk doll depicts a Native American figure, possibly a warrior or dancer in a traditional pose. It's seated or crouching on a wooden base. The head is covered with a white husk \"hair\" or hood, and notably has a face—the face is painted or formed in red\/brown, with visible features like eyes, nose, and mouth. This is a departure from the most traditional faceless style often associated with Iroquois\/Haudenosaunee legends. Clothing includes a yellow fringed shirt with red and black accents, red arm and leg bands, beaded necklace, and detailed moccasins with beadwork. It's holding a stick or bow in one hand and has fur-like fringes (possibly real fur or more husks) for added texture.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Antique American Indian Art","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47338425843877,"sku":"22-0340","price":365.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0718\/6071\/5685\/files\/22-0340_1.jpg?v=1767208380"},{"product_id":"cherokee-split-cane-wall-pocket-basket","title":"Cherokee Split Cane Wall Pocket Basket","description":"\u003cp\u003eMid 20th Century\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e6\" H x 8.75\" L x 6.25\" W + 2.125\" H Handle\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHand Woven with a Grayish Brown and Tan Colors with Handle for Hanging\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn Very Good Condition\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCherokee split cane wall pocket baskets are traditional or traditionally inspired hanging baskets made by Cherokee artisans, primarily from the Eastern Band of Cherokee Indians in North Carolina.
